<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Penny Lady®, post: 1947247, member: 16948&quot;]Day 6 (Wednesday):</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Back in class, one of the students, Dave, who is also an EAC collector, had several of these aluminum foil pressings of large cents.&nbsp; They are made by placing foil around the coin, then using a seal like a notary seal (with rubber inserts) to tightly press the foil against the coin.&nbsp; Then the coin is slipped out and the foil placed in a plastic 2 x 2 to preserve the image.&nbsp; They are so well done that you can even identify the variety of the coin just by the foil pressing.&nbsp; I thought they were fascinating, so Dave gave me one of his.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_5991_zps869204fc.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_5990_zps12318109.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>In class, Rick showed us some of the more interesting Indian cent varieties.&nbsp; The first one he happened to show was one I discovered a few years ago – the 1862 S-9 with a reverse die gauge (for obvious reasons, it’s affectionately called the “pe_is” coin). </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_5996_zps148d1f9c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Afterwards, we did some more guess the grade.&nbsp; This purple magenta toned 1877 was one of the more beautiful coins he passed around for us to grade.&nbsp; We all drooled over it and felt it was accurately graded.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_5998_zpsdf72c9e8.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Due to all the hockey camp athletes, the lunch line on Wednesday was so long, it went out the back door of the building!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_5999_zpsbab28576.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Sonny and Brian hamming it up in line!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6002_zps88205b1b.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The long line inside the cafeteria</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6003_zps242877d5.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Today’s lunch companions – Dan and smiling Tiny!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6005_zpsc45f54de.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Back in class, Rick gave out our “graduation” certificates</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6006_zps7716424e.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I passed ;-)</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6009_zpse0530a98.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Our class photo</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6035_zps04a79064.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The ANA held a wine and cheese reception prior to the awards banquet. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6024_zpsa63c2a3b.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6027_zps8baf5535.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6028_zps7d731af0.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>They had these hobo tokens carved by the hobo nickel class on display at the reception</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6018_zps6fc3e81c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Oded was one of the students and carved the hobo nickel in the bottom left corner</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6019_zps20689879.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Me and David Lange</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6022_zps4afc46b6.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Joe Boling and his money hat – along with Joe’s usual photo-bomb!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq139/thepennylady/2014%2006%20ANA%20Summer%20Seminar/IMG_6029_zps508bcc35.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
